Hi all, Just wondering, how big do Retics grow generally? I've tried searching this on the internet and have come across a variety of answers, from 10cm to 27cm for the shell alone! Even for a GALS, 27cm seems huge! Shell size and body size would be equally appreciated  |

Thanks! I was curious as to whether I would need to invest in a bigger tank when mine has grown up, but looks like I won't have to after all  Do you know how old your snails are Rosanna? |

They can get a lot bigger than five inches.
I know someone who's got on that is 9 inches and still growing.
I would advise giving your snails as much space as you can afford.
